1/6 General 1/6 X-men thread

[jedijim3002]

I took the suit off my medi Wolverine. Worked out pretty good. I took the blue shorts off mine.

I think a good combo would be crazy toys wolverine hs on the medi wolvie on ganghood body. The suit is easy to take off only small open in back sew back up and if buy any medicom figure it will break and legs fit very easy in medicom boots. This is my crazytoys wolvie and modded cyclops on cheap better body.

Collossus arrived today aka toys era the steel. I'm pretty bummed all the threads of 2nd company's are gone. A Ton of presence in size just very imposing huge figure ,built very well no paint scratches Amazing figure for awesome price. I'll take some pics tomorrow loving the growing x-men team. Bring on Mystique & Storm.

Pretty ridiculous considering they let people sell their own sculpts and outfits for licenses that are already taken. Seems a little hypocritical to me.

I think it's understandable when you've got people producing knock off versions of characters like the Avengers or Logan, which you are or intend to market yourself. It's depressing when you have no intention of ever making a more obscure character but you want to stop anybody else from making them either.

I was wondering what happened to the threads. Did any mods put up a disclaimer or notice?

Darklord Dave put up a thread that he is enforcing the rules concerning the discussion of unlicensed figures on this forum.

Yet you could list for days the amount of items listed in the customs thread for whole outfits heads and kits that break those rules.

I don’t have a problem with it myself but if you are going to allow some, you should allow all.

Speaking of customs, here's my custom Wolverine I'm building. The suit is Tony Mei, I'm making everything else, head, shoulderpads, hands, boot etc. Of course I'm not intending to make these for sale, just for my own collection.

It only applies to mass produced figures.

Thanks! I'm painting the shoulder pads and bracers tonight.
The hands need to be sanded down and primed, but they are slightly too large for the body I'm using. They fit almost perfectly to the sideshow wolverine body though.

Thanks! I'd love to see your jim lee cyclops.
I painted the shoulder pads and bracers, but the paint needs to be reworked on certain parts. I'm making the boots soon, hope to have them done at the end of the month.

Thanks man. I do have a few WIP pictures I can post.

Wolverine is looking real good!

how my team is coming along so far. Would love a comics inspired nightcrawler.

 

[jedijim3002]

The Marvel Icons 12 inch Nightcrawler is a great place to start. It’s got a nice headsculpt and decent hands feet and tail. That’s what I used for my movie custom Nightcrawler. I like it better than the Toy Biz X2 head hands and feet. They seem way too big.

Here’s mine now.

Here is my old one. I used the Medicom Eolverine outfit, body, boots, and hands. I just lopped off two fingers cause the other hands just seemed way too big. The head is not a bad size but I like the Icons one better.
